Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1081

Arianne’s laughter could be heard throughout the entire building till even Brian could hear it as well. He mumbled unhappily, “I’m a disgrace to mankind, not being able to marry even at the age of thirty…”

During the journey, Arianne took out a mirror from her bag to tidy up her makeup. She had done her makeup in a hurry; since she had to leave suddenly, her lipstick was slightly crooked.

Just as she was done tidying up, Mark reached out and turned her face towards him. His fingers rubbed against her lips. “I’ve told you not to use such a red shade already. I’ll throw away all those lipsticks one of these days.”

She slapped his hand away. “You’re really asking for me to hit you. I’ve just put this on! How is this red? I’ve already chosen the lightest shade they have. My lips have always been this red naturally, alright? You chauvinistic man, you’re hopeless!”

Mark saw that she did not dare take out her lipstick to put it on again and grinned.

After being angry for half an hour, Arianne noticed that there was still quite a distance before they arrived, so she asked, “Is there no progress with Alejandro’s case? I suppose the Smiths really are being very careful.”

Mark took out a tissue and wiped off the lipstick residue on his finger. “It’s not a problem. Now that Alejandro is discharged from the hospital, we can search for another opportunity since there’s still quite some time before his leg recovers. The atmosphere in the Smith family is quite heavy at the moment. They won’t have the resources to bother Tiffany and Jackson so they’re quite safe for now. As long as Alejandro remains put, time is not an issue.”

As they arrived at Arianne’s company, Mark grabbed onto her suddenly as she got out of the car and kissed her. “Don’t go putting on your lipstick now.”

Arianne nervously glanced at Brian, who was sitting at the driver’s seat. She nudged Mark’s arm and scowled. “You shameless man!”

Aye, who was quite close with her, had been transferred out, and now, everyone in the company knew that she was Mrs. West, their boss’s wife. None of them were willing to talk to her except for when giving pleasantries. Her superior had even given her so few tasks that she would normally sleep on the job out of boredom, which usually ended up with half a day gone. This was Jackson’s way of forcing her to hurry home and rest.

Not only that, Summer would often bring food to the company for her, afraid that Jackson had not taken care of her properly. Summer had no idea that Jackson had taken care of every little detail, even her trips to the bathroom had a time limit since it wouldn’t be good for the baby if she had stayed there for too long! He was also insistent on not letting her eat what she shouldn’t. All of this had made Tiffany even more eager to hurry up and release the baby from her belly so that she could be rid of all these annoyances.

As Jackson arrived at the boardroom, his phone rang just as he sat in his chair.

He held up his phone to see who the caller was and noted that it was a text message from an unknown number. ‘I’ve decided not to work under Alejandro anymore. Can we meet up?’
